Perfume Power! - Vera Wang 'Princess'

I was shopping in Morrison’s just before Black Friday and came across a discount perfume stand. They don’t actually sell perfumes, so I thought it was a bit odd but I decided to have a look and came across this scent. I had been wanting to test it for years but never got around to it. I decided to risk it and buy it as it was only £10.00.

I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de toilette. The bottle is heart shaped and is made of thick clear glass and it has a sort of flat diamond shape base to enable it to stand up. The perfume liquid is a light lilac colour. The gold metal cap is crown shaped and has lilac stones stuck around it. The writing on the bottle is in dark purple and has the brand name in bold letters and the fragrance name in a calligraphy type font. It has a regular gold spritzer to dispense the scent.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Ivy, Water Lily & Tangerine
Middle Notes: Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Mimosa & Moroccan Rose
Base Notes: Apricot, Amber, Musk & Precious Woods

Frist off, I absolutely love the bottle! Heart shaped, purple, tiny crown and generally Princess inspired, who wouldn’t love it? It is a very nice feminine scent and it kind of has a vanilla twang to it, but it must be the woodsy notes. The musk is very soft and not overpowering. It is kind of a strong scent, but the floral notes tone it down a little. I was quite surprised that I actually like it because it is not very fruity and I don’t generally like floral notes being the most dominant. It does last a few hours on the skin because of the musk notes. I am so happy I picked this up on a whim and I will definitely consider re-purchasing when I have used up my first little bottle.

Perfume Power! - Harajuku Lovers 'G'

I received this perfume as an Easter gift from a family member. The bottle design is really cute. It has a doll figure cap, which lifts off and the actual bottle is clear and simple glass, it kind of has a flower shaped base. The size I have is very small, so it is handy for your handbag. And I suppose you could keep the doll for collector’s purposes, when you have used up the perfume. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Crisp Mandarin, Fresh Coconut & Apple Skin Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Soft Freesia & Magnolia Vapour Base Notes: Coconut Cream, White Sandalwood & Cottonwoods To me it smells really strong for an eau de toilette. I quite like the scent because it is very feminine and quite sweet. The only thing I don’t like about it is the coconut. I don’t really like the coconut scent anyway. Other than that, it smells amazing, until the coconut hits your nose. I can also smell the floral side to it as well, the coconut does complement the flor...

Graze - Box #10

I have another Graze box post for you today. I am thinking of stopping these posts soon because it is starting to feel compulsory and I need to post more relevant beauty related content. A closer look at my treats. Graze’s Popping Corn ‘Lightly Salted’ I have tried this before and it is really nice and not overly salty. You get quite a bit of corn in the bag too, even though it is a small packet. Lightly Toasted Pistachios “Whole pistachios toasted with a little salt” I have had this packet before too and I just love pistachios! Tomato & Basil Pizza “Basil crunchini, cheese cashews & mini tomato breadsticks” This is my first experience with this packet, but each snack has been in other packets I have tried before. The crunchini is very nice and it’s just like croutons. The cheese cashews are nice and I do still really like the tomato breadsticks/baguettes. Herby Bread Basket “Basil baguettes, garlic crostini and oregano ric...

Yesterday I picked up the new edition of Glamour Magazine, well three copies of them actually! It is the July 2013 edition and you get a choice of five free MODEL CO products and four different magazine covers ( Rebel Wilson , Zooey Deschanel , Myleene Klass & Daniel Radcliffe ). I have never heard of the MODEL CO brand before, but judging by their website, they are marketed as high end. I’m not sure what size the items in the magazines are, but I have listed the full sizes and prices below. FIBRE LASHXTEND Mascara - £28 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Strip Tease - £12 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Showgirl Red - £12 COLOURBOX Eye Pencil in Black 01 - £14 LIP ENHANCER Illusion Lip Liner - £16 I decided to pick up two copies because this month’s edition is £1 instead of £2.
